My First Kyokushin Tournament....

Actually, I don't feel too bad. I've only been doing KK for about 5 and a half months. I ended up bracketed against a guy who's fought in, and from what I understand, won quite a few tournaments.

Basically, he scored two Waza Aris, thus beating me. My leg is pretty messed up this morning...but so is his. He ended up going to the heavyweight final match, and lost. He had to fight switch stance after me, for the most part, because I hurt his leg. All in all, it was a great experience. As much as it's improved in the last couple months, I still need to work on my cardio, big time.

"That was the only way you could destroy me. Neither do I quail at death nor act in deference to any god. So drop your talk, I come resolved to die. But first, there are these gifts I bring for you." At once he hurled a javelin at his enemy, then sent another and another still straight to the mark. - Virgil's The Aeneid

Ah, I figured by your post you may have been there, but I thought for a second you were the one who was kicking the hell out of Waggs' leg. Props to you too.
